SOLD: No.11 Dickenson Dr, Granton. Picture: Supplied
A bespoke home on acreage within a half-hour’s drive of Hobart has set a new benchmark for pricing in its area.
No.11 Dickenson Dr, Granton, a landmark in its area, was listed for sale by Ant Manton in April and has now sold for an undisclosed sum.
The LJ Hooker Pinnacle Property agent said it was a great result for his vendor and the property’s buyers, who were thrilled with their purchase.
Mr Manton said the almost three-acre property generated a lot of inquiry, which locals primarily led.
“It was bought by a younger couple, a local family — a perfect home for them to grow into,” he said.
“When you are lucky enough to list a property that is so special and unique — and it was an honour to have this one — it’s an ideal result if you can match your vendor’s expectations. And we did.
“It is such a stunning home, we were very confident in being able to find the right buyers.”

Mr Manton notes that the combination of land, build quality and overall design is something that would be very difficult to replicate.
He said No.11 is a home where it is easy to see “the love that has been put into it”.
“And now for its new owners, they can enjoy that hard work and make their own memories here,” he said.
Rarely does a property come together quite like this.
No.11 Dickenson Dr is an architect-designed, custom-built residence completed in 2019 with a focus on longevity.
Elevated on the land and capturing wide-reaching views while retaining privacy, every major living zone was purposefully positioned to maximise light, outlook and space.
With 539sq m of internal living, the home delivers serious scale without sacrificing functionality.

Meanwhile, few properties in Granton break the $2m threshold. But when they do, they are something outside the norm.
Records show a historic 1.3ha-plus property at No.652 Main Rd, Granton was sold for $2.65m in 2021. This included two homes — one a historic stone inn — across three titles.
Last year, No.27 Rowbottoms Rd fetched $2.3m.
This 706sq m eight-bedroom house with a pool, sauna and gym was set on 1.8ha of land overlooking the River Derwent.
